Anna's POV:

We were speechless as we saw each other. We both gave a look to each other saying 'You know her?'

Miranda didn't mind us, she continued to act so cheerful, "Alyn, why don't you say something? Are you tired from swimming?"

He swims?!

"Um..." he turns to her direction "We know each other"

I know it's pretty awkward for the both of us. It seems alyn continues to tell her the truth.

"Oh right" she said then turns to me "You mentioned to me that you go to St. Clements Academy"

Yeah, I just remembered it.

"Yeah..." I nodded

"How about you join dinner with us?" she offered, "After all, I wanted to repay you and I want to know about the two of you" she points at us

We began to walk, I pulled out my phone to text Lele that I won't be joining dinner with them. With a speed of a lighting, Alyn grabbed my wrist

"No" he said

"Huh? I'm texting Lele that I won't be home for dinner"

"Just don't" he replied with a begging expression on his face "Tell her that you're visiting a childhood friend"

With a questionable look, I asked why

"I'll explain later" he replied then called someone, I heard him saying "Don't come to dinner" then ended the very short conversation

Who was that? Why did he say don't come? Was he expecting someone? Perhaps a girl! Was he supposed to introduce a girl to his family?! I ruined his day!

Miranda continued to talk as we walk. She told him that I helped pick out a book for him and his cousin. I shrugged as he looks at me.

I felt really awkward if we're so close. I remembered what happened earlier at the clinic. Everything.

He just said that he likes me. I questioned myself in what way? He makes me confused. But he has a girl, right?

"By the way" Miranda opens up another topic, "How did you two meet?"

"We lived in the same house" he replied

"Oh so you're in the dorm too" she reacted

As soon as we arrive at the mansion, a guard didn't let me in

"She's a guest, Edgar" Alyn said as he placed his hand on my shoulder

A quick shiver runs down my spine as our body made contact

"Oh, I humbly apologize Mr. Scottfield" the guard bowed as we passed by

"You two could make a great couple, you know that" Miranda geeked as she watches us went inside after her

I never expected the great Alyn Scottfield lives in this mansion, I never knew he was rich and oh, there's a bulter.

"Welcome home, Madam Miranda, Sir Alyn and guest" he greeted

"Andrew, this is Anna Lautner. She will be here for dinner" Miranda introduced

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Lautner. I'm Andrew Cooper, I'm the butler in this state, I will be serving you too" he bowed and shook hands with me

"Nice to meet you too, Mr. Andrew" I replied with a smile

"Calling me Andrew is fine" he smiled politely, I nodded.
